Question

Which of the following words is formed through affixation?

• A. Reader
• B. Blog
• C. Radar
• D. Gym

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Reader

The word "READER" is formed through affixation, as it is created by adding the suffix "-er" to the base word "read" to form a new word with a different meaning (a person who reads). 

• Affixation:

  The process of adding a prefix or suffix to a base word to create a new word. 

• Suffix:

  "-er" in this case acts as a suffix, attached to the end of "read" to indicate someone who performs the action.
